Centos5 resize/root Partition

I finally found it. Now I will executeCodePost it. I hope it will help you!

[Root @ localhost ~] # Fdisk/dev/hda3

The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 3916.
There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,
And coshould in certain setups cause problems:
1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of lilo)
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSS
(E.g., DOS fdisk, OS/2 fdisk)
